In artificial intelligence, problems can be solved by using searching algorithms, evolutionary computations, knowledge representations, etc. There are various searching techniques used to solve problems. In general, searching is referred to as finding the information one needs.

The process of problem-solving using searching consists of the following steps.

  •  Define the problem
  •  Analyze the problem
  •  Identification of possible solutions
  •  Choosing the optimal solution
  •  Implementation
